CHICAG0'S NEW MAYOR.
HE FORMALLY ASSUMES THE DUTY
OF HIS OFFICE.

An Extract From His inaugural Address
on the Labor Questionable Place in
America for AnarChiSm or Socialism.
Other News From the Labor Domain.
ECAIcAGo, April GO.-Mayor John A.
Roche, after qualifying before city council
last night, read brief inaugural, in which
he said; Every brick and stone and timber
in the buildings which line our $50 miles of
streets are contributions to the grandest
monument of labor erected by willing hands
and earnest hearts in modern times. The de-
mand of the workingmen for just treatment
and fair wages is right and should be re-
spected
Arbitration is a better method of settling
controversies between employe and employer
than strikes or boycotts or brute force,
Might is not the synonym Of right, and
should not take its place in land of liberty
and law and free ballot And the mistaken
men, who, while enjoying the benefits of
free government are seeking to undermine
and overthrow it, under the guise of Social
ism or Anarchy, must learn that this is not
the soil for the growth of their un-American
doctrines The first duty Of government is
the protection of its citizens in their right to
life. liberty and property"
The new mayor formally assumed the
duties Of his office this morning

Planning nIlll D1en,s Troubles.

CINCINNATI, April 20. The striking plan
ing mill men at their meeting to-day decided
to start cooperative mill, and a committee
of fifteen was appointed to raise subscrip-
tions and select site. Subscriptions Co the
amount of S25, 900 were offered at once. The
shares will be $40 or $25 each. The strikers
will receive another weeks allowance from
the union, Itwas reported at the meeting
that there were not more than two or three
men working at any of the mills, and though
several of them had advertised heavily for
men they were unable to secure any. No
stock is taken by the strikers in the story
that the planning mill bosses will import
1000 men here from Michigan and elsewhere.
Only two men were reported working on the
Bank building at Third and Walnut streets.

sam. Schaenrer Dismissed.

INDEPENDENCE, Mo-, April 2O.--The case
O., has been dismissed in Judge Whites
criminal court. Schaeffer was charged in
an indictment returned at the February
term, 1885, with attempting to bring about
the murder of the millionaire, John L Blair,
of Blairstown, N. j. The case has been
called at each term since docketed, but on
account of the absence of the prosecuting
witness, Charles Allen, has never been tried.
The dismissal is significant in view Of the
fact that Blair is under indictment in Kan
sas City for assault upon the life of Schaeffer.
He will be tried shortly.
